Trailer tyre rack

[Kingster]

Anyone got one for a Brian James (micro max) trailer?

 

I guess other makes could be adapted. 
 

Must be high level as the trailer is only ickle

Yeah too far and too expensive

 

 

I think the same ones have been on there for months - don’t mind paying up to £200.

Winter project. Learn to use the MIG I have in the garage and make one

Just be mindful especially if your trailer is single axle, most non  4 x4  tow bars have very limited nose weight limits. ( Mine are 80kg) Putting tyres Infront of the axle may overload your tow bar

Yes - mines 75kg but figured I’d move the car back to compensate. Maybe an idea to test things first I guess!

Good idea. My trailers not long enough to have that option !!

Mine has a little leeway - but not much... so will likely make a rack that sits nearer the axle than the BJ ones. Should be room over the long bonnet.
